Clueless Definitions
~
Here’s a fun thing to do:
Find some words in the dictionary that you really don’t know the definition of (don’t look at the definition at first). Then, by the way it is spelled, or how it sounds to you, make up a funny sentence using the word. Lastly, read the actual definition. It’s funny to see if you were anywhere close to getting it right. 🙂
Here’s some starting with letter C that I found.
***
Clueless Definition = camerlengo – Instructions in how to operate a camera, written in camera lingo terms, so they are easily understood.
Sentence = In order to understand her new camera’s functions, she had to refer to the camerlengo that was included in the package.
Real Definition = A cardinal who heads the Apostolic Camera.

Clueless Definition = concatenate/concatenation – A newly formed country, ruled by cats.

Real Definition = To link together in a series or chain; linked together.

Clueless Definition = camion – To wear camouflage; the opposite of cami-off.

Real Definition = A motor truck, or bus.

BREAKING ALL SOULS – (FIRST WORDS)
I thought I’d try something a little different. I’ve seen similar, but haven’t tried doing it before. What I did, was take a bunch of books that I have stacked up, take a photo, and try to make some kind of poem out of the first word or two from the titles of them. This is what I came up with. 🙂 It was pretty interesting, and fun to do. I’ll probably try it again sometime. (oh, looks like I missed using a couple of the books title words…hmm, for fun see if you can guess the ones I missed?)
***
BREAKING ALL SOULS
The original haunted American desert has gone wild
Breaking all souls into ashes, where
I am a stranger, a sleeping holy ghost
You don’t hold the reckless midnight storm, the biting lover, the darker shades…
I’ll kiss the memory

STREAM OF CONSCIOUSNESS SATURDAY – SOCS – FOOD
Today we are to write about food, on the SOCS weekly blog fun!
Find out more about this, see more entries, and join in, too! Click below:
The Friday Reminder and Prompt for #SoCS Feb. 27/16
Good afternoon, y’all. Today for Stream of Consciousness Saturday, we are to talk about food. Ok, I like food 🙂 Mostly sweet things. I get bored with everything else, but you have to eat something, anyway. It doesn’t matter to me what it is, unless it is something I find gross. Like those TV food shows (you probably know the ones) that go all over the world, eating nasty stuff. Well, to me it is. I don’t even like watching them.
And, what about food fights? You see that sometimes on TV. Does anyone really throw food at each other? Sure doesn’t sound fun to me. Another thing I’d say no to are those food eating contests, where people compete for prizes, I think, by stuffing themselves with more and more food. That can’t be good for you.
Some phrases we hear all the time are… Food for thought (I can sort of understand this one)… Food fit for a King (so, is no food fit for a Queen?)… and then, there are grocery stores with Food in the name, such as… Food King (still no Queen), Food Emporium (really?)… Food basket (ok, makes sense)…
Now that I’ve typed Food so many times, the word sounds weird…say it with me… Food, food, food, fooooooddd… hahaha …it makes your lips pucker up! hahaha 😉
So, I have my afternoon coffee. Is that a food, or just a beverage? There are liquid foods, solid foods, crunchy, slimy, sweet, sour, yummy and yucky… want me to go on listing stuff? I imagine you don’t…so, I think I’m done for now.
What’s for lunch/ dinner/supper/breakfast/snacks?

Just Jot It January 30th – An- #SoCS

AND
And, here it is late afternoon,
And, I have been trying to think of something to write, using
An…and, have come to the conclusion that I haven’t thought of ANything.
ANyway…here’s some words that start with the letters ‘an’…
Anxiety – I have it
Antiques – I like them
Animated – Sometimes
Annoying – Probably
Angel – Nope, not me
Angry – Hardly ever
Animals – Love them all
Any-hoo – That’s all I’ve got 😉
Oh, one more thing… I am in ANguish…I’m coming up on the end of a 2 book series. I’ve really loved reading these, and wish there would be more. 😦 Now, I’ll have to find ANother book to get interested in. What do you do when you come to the end of a book you like so much? Do you jump right into another? (if you’re like me, you have stacks of ‘to be read’ books)
Thanks, Linda, for ANother wonderful prompt! 🙂

JUST JOT IT JANUARY – # 11 – EFFORTLESS
Today’s prompt word for Just Jot It January is – Effortless
Find out more about this challenge by clicking below…
Just Jot It January 11th – Effortless
~
I don’t know about you, but I feel that there is nothing that is totally effortless. You have to put in a little effort to just live, don’t you? Now, lots of things seem to be done effortlessly, because the ones doing whatever it is, have been doing it for a long time, and have had time to practice doing it. To us is seems effortless, but really it took hard work to get to that point.
I had to put in some effort to think of something to write about effortless. Nothing much was coming to me, so I just thought I’d do an anagram of the word. That was a few minutes of fun. If you’d like to try it, now’s your chance! 🙂
The word is Effortless … make as many words as you can using the letters from the word, in only 2 minutes. (I got 25)
Have fun! 🙂

PERSNICKETY – JUST JOT IT JANUARY # 1
The first prompt for the first day of Just Jot It January is the word Persnickety.
This month’s blog challenge is brought to you by Linda G. Hill and you can find her page here
~
The word Persnickety is a funny one. It means to be fussy, stuck-up, snobbish, and overly concerned with attention to details.
I’ve always heard this word used, also, to mean very picky about what someone does, or their likes or dislikes.
I don’t think I’m very persnickety at all. I’m not picky about much of anything. I feel I take things as they come, and make the best of it.
I do like to play around with words, sometimes. I like to de-construct them, look up definitions, re-arrange the letters, make anagram words, and make up new definitions for them. So, if I happened to get another cat, I might call him Nic. That’s because the word persnickety reminds me of a cat…. Purrs – nic – kitty =^..^=
What do you think of the word persnickety? Funny or a bad term for a person?

NABLOPOMO – # 5 … “LET THE SKELETONS DANCE”
Today is the fifth day of posting for the month long NaBloPoMo challenge. What I’ve done today is what I would call a Prose Poem. That is a poem, that is written as prose…a combination of the two. I’ve also used enjambment…a continuation of a sentence over a line break…a bit of poetic trickery to pull the reader into the next line. This was also posted in dVerse Poets
~
LET THE SKELETONS DANCE
They need to come together…be joined…connected somehow. How does it work? All
the ideas, the words…the bones? Joining together the words…ripped from your ideas…your soul…
Disjointed, flopping, flailing, clacking, bleeding upon one another…the bones
of your poem.
They all want your attention…to be the backbone…the one that holds all the words in a cohesive oneness.
It’s a group effort. You have to understand – do you?
Place a boneword in the wrong place, it won’t make sense…though some are not meant to make sense, I fear…
At least to me…
Gather them up…all the ingredients. Place them on the page…just so. Does it walk, talk, speak to you, or does it
Fall to pieces in places?
Is there a special magic…a sprinkling of glitter and good luck that is needed? Maybe…
The words are good, the ideas are there, the emotion of the piece is there…yet, all together the
Skeleton of your poem is lifeless…
What is needed is heart…a beating heart, to revive it, to infuse that zing…that spark of life.
Knowledge…a brain…it has lost it’s way. It knows not where it is going…where does it belong?
The knowledge of form and structure…the skeleton…the brain will tell the bones where they belong.
There will be rogues…O loveable renegades…
Some will need to be shoved into place, some will need to be pried out of position…rearranged…
Against their will.
Do it…just do it…whip those bones into shape. Make that skeleton dance.
Dance to the tune of your imagination…
Then…set those bones free.
